At the beginning we felt kind of free and anonymous with bitcoin, the same we felt at the beginning of the 90s with ip addresses, usenet and the web. Now the internet is a terrible surveilance machine and i am afraid bitcoin is becoming the same. Thats why anybody interested in personal freedom better get some Monero, now.

I never felt that, and I'm here since the beginning. It was always obvious that pseudonymity was not enough, and any attempt to partition funds was doomed from the start unless I never did transfers across wallets. Incidentally, that is why I got into Monero very early on, I recognized the (should be obvious but apparently not) problem Bitcoin had, and still has.
